lyrics

Desire is the root
of the emptiness filling the void
You struggle with your heart
over what it is may bring you joy
Restless in nature
Oh dear, that’s part of the danger
What good’s this life at all
without that tug of war?

Don’t let it get you down

To be free you must embrace
that our lives are lacking in meaning
This world is neither on your
side or against you, but indifferent
Conflict is nature
How you attempt to betray her
And though the weight is great
these are not chains at all
